The surrogate did a great job, yes, but these parents endeared the process as well. To act like they did nothing truly shows the ignorance of people. Getting pregnant via means other than the obvious takes commitment, time, and lots of procedures for the biological parents. Yes the surrogate deserves B&G’s congratulations as well, and you can bet they have gone above and beyond the expected for her, but they deserve to reap the rewards of all this labor of love as well. For those who have not gone through this journey you have no idea how much labor goes into being a forever family, no matter how you got to the end. Congrats B&G!!!

It’s obvious that “lala” has never been through trying times in his/her life. Let this person live in their little bubble. No one forced the surrogate to have their baby, it was her choice. Having been pregnant, I know how much work it is, BUT these two individuals had no other options and should be congratulated on their new arrival. Try being positive, it makes life worth living

Fantastic news, any news of a healthy baby is welcomed but more so when that baby has been wanted and desperately hoped for by two wonderful people, who have endured more than enough the last two years,this is not a time for haters to post comments and btw the way when she said “we did it” she was obviously referring to the fact that they got there in the end. I bet G&B will be eternally grateful.

I am sure that G&B are beyond thankful to their surrogate and are thanking her as much as they possibly can. This article is about the arrival of the baby and not about every single detail of their personal conversations with the surrogate.

Congrats and nothing but the best wishes and blessings for the three of them!!! It is so sweet that they named their first born son after BOTH of their fathers (especially since his father has passed away) and such a beautiful tribute to both men. “Duke” must also have a special meaning to them. I hope their wonderful surrogate has a healthy and speedy recovery. Can’t wait to see the three of them together!

PS- The reason why her name and photo have not been made public is for privacy reasons and probably part of her contract with them. She may have a family of her own to protect as well. Nicole kidman did not even anounce that they used a surrogate until after their baby was born. Sarah Jessica and Matthew Broderick’s surrogate was nearly blackmailed for information about the couple… etc.
So stop being hateful and judgemental, it’s “nunya.” They will share what they want.

A gestational surrogate is someone who carries the biological child of someone else; she carries the baby, but she does not create him/her, she isn’t genetically related. B&G did, indeed, participate, especially Giuliana, who had to endure fertility treatments-shots, egg harvesting, etc.-to create the baby so that the G.S. could gestate him. Little Edward is a miracle, shared equally by the three people who gave him life. Congratulations, Bill and Giuliana and welcome to the world, Little Miracle!

After all the heart ache, tears and trying to get to this amazing moment, they most certainly did “do it”.

Such a ridiculous comment! Have you ever had miscarriages, other fertility issues, and breast cancer??????? They deserve to have a baby just like everyone else. By them stating that they did it, their referring to the fact that they never gave up, kept on pursuing their dreams of being parents and were finally rewarded.

Get some class!

Congratulations! Happy to hear this. It saddens me that someone would post a negative comment. My sister in law and brother were trying to conceive for a while when she found out she had breast cancer. She was devastated that she would never have a baby and after a courageous fight with breast cancer passed away. My brother then a yr and a half later died of a heart attack. So its obvious that the person who made this comment must have a perfect life and nothing has ever happened and could never relate with something like this.

Sometimes the best thing someone can do is keep their mouth closed. Have you had the desire to want a child and not be able to?, have you had cancer?. I have and it sucks. Most surrogate wants their name plastered all over the world?
You should be ashamed of your need to be negative regarding the joyous birth of a child, no matter how the child arrived.

I’m not sure some folks understand about the surrogate. She was only the oven, they did not use her eggs, B & G made that baby and someone else gestated it. Now I am sure they thanked her, if you have ever seen the show they can’t appreciate her more. At the end of the day they interviewed women for this and the woman came from an agency. This woman was paid quite handsomely and that was understood right up front from the agency when they sent her over. Thank her, yes, but also she applied and set her cost to do this job for them. Now say congrats to B & G and poo pooing on their moment, they have been nothing but kind to everyone.

OMG, all you negative ninnies out there need to know that having your eggs harvested is one of the most painful procedures a person can endure. I’ve been thru it 3 times to get my little bundle of joy, so YES, THEY did it with the help of a very caring, amazing GC/Surrogate, which I was blessed not to need. Congrats on two parents that have been thru heII and back to get this beautiful end result. (From one that’s been thru it, too).

How rude…if ya can’t say anything nice, say nothing at all. It’s not easy to have a baby for some people, my husband and I have had our own issues having our two sons, but by the grace if God it happened. I feel for couples who long to have their children, I know exactly how they feel. SHAME on you for that comment…Ooooooo! They, including the surrogate, did it…they DESERVE it.

Congrats to them.
However, they put themselves through the ringer. She got cancer because of all the fertility she was under-going because she HAD to have her own baby.
Now they have done through a surrogate, again so they can have their OWN baby.
Plenty of parentless babies out there. They never gave that a thought. I just can’t agree with what they have done. To each their own, but that is my opinion.

Lala, so do you also mean that because I’m adopted, my parents didn’t do anything even though they struggled for years to have a baby and were on the waiting list for over 3 years before they got the phone call I had arrived? That’s very insensitive and ignorant. I wish nothing but the best for this beautiful couple and their new baby boy. They will be the most amazing, loving parents and I wish them all the happiness in the world.

Wow! There are really some ignorant people on here. Educate yourself before you speak. To think they did “nothing” to have this baby just shows how stupid some of you are. IVF is a very long process which includes many, many ultrasounds, giving yourself shots and surgical egg retrieval before even creating an embryo. All things SHE would have had to do BEFORE the embryo was implanted into the surrogate. SO, um yes, I think they did A LOT to get this baby… more than most peeople can even imagine. GROW UP!!

Edward is a horrible name? OK. I was wondering what criteria you haters use to deem a name a “good name”? How about Elephant? I had a child in my class named that. Or maybe Name? Had a kid named that too. My favorite? Tequila Corvette. Her parents thought it was funny, said it was like drinking and driving.

Christa

To SOMD….
Did u actually say they didn’t go through anything? I have been watching their reality show since it has been on tv. So let me tell you something…. They did everything!! They have been through fertility treatment after fertility treatment after fertility treatment and then CANCER!!! Then Giuliana has to sit and watch another woman do the one thing she has been trying and fighting to do for years. This is not a hit at the surrogate because she helped them with their miracle.

So excuse me I think they have every right to say they did it because…..
THEY DID IT!!!!! Congratulations!

Katie and Lala; you are sad people. I have had fertility issues and had to resign to not have children. A great deal of women I know have had fertility treatments and do not have breast cancer and breast cancers victims and survivors I know have never had fertility treatments, to blame her cancer on fertility is quite ignorant. They have had their struggles, more than most trying to have a family so a huge Congrats to Bill and Giuliana and a warm welcome for Edward. It is a wonderful day for them and they deserve it like anyone else. I’m happy they brought these struggles to light and shared their ups and downs. Nobody ever died from sharing warm and positive feelings and congratulating others on good news. Congrats to them and anyone who has overcome these struggles :) !!

Most gestational surrogates for celebrities are not identified for obvious reasons. Also, some states forbid financial compensation for surrogacy, though I am sure the Rancics have been very generous with their carrier. Some states, such as NY, outlaw surrogacy and that is completely wrong. Bill and Guiliana have been though alot and are so deserving of this,and theyre still young enough to be involved and be great parents. I do disagree with some forms of surrogacy,like what Robert Dinero and his wife did- their ages were 68 and 54 respectively- that is so wrong. Guiliana was recommended to avoid pregnancy due to her cancer treatment and with her clock ticking, they had to use a surrogate if they were to use her own eggs as she was already having infertility issues prior to this. I also think a surrogate was their best bet-Guiliana is too thin and I still think that was making it more difficult for her become pregnant. They can afford it also, may as well do it considering their circumstances. I can’t wait to see pics!!!

You really think fertility treatments were the cause of her cancer? Then why wouldn’t more women undergoing fertility treatment be diagnosed with cancer as well? If you’ve seen any interview with Giuliana you would know they found her cancer due to the screening process before IVF. she credits the treatments with saving her life.
And honestly, you have no right to pronounce judgment on how G&B should grow their family. I am an advocate for adoption. My sister was adopted. But to criticize their choice is foolish. I’m so sick of people who hide behind the anonymity of the Internet to bash people they don’t even know.

Congrats to the family, they really have tried for so long. I just hope they are not in every single tabloid e-v-e-r-y single week for now on forever. They need to be more quiet about stufff, they are very overexposed in the media (though I understand them wanting to share struggles to help others). G, time to get rid of the extensions and about 7 inches of hair, it looks kind of weird now, lol.

Also why such an Anglo name Giuliana- you have such a rich ethnic background, born in Italy, etc. Such a shame not to share that with your son, esp since he already will carry your husband’s name. Awww

Congrats to them!

Ps I didn’t realize you change the term of the surrogate when you want to clarify both egg and sperm come from parents. So interesting– I always wondered about Sarah Jessica Parker. Hmmmm

Biggest congratulations to the Rancic’s on the arrival of Edward Duke – their little miracle. This is clear proof that great things come to those who wait and never give up hope regardless of what obstacles may come about along the road.

@Lala – Yes a woman carried this baby for them and should be thanked graciously but Giuliana and Bill did this, this is THEIR baby. The baby is biologically theirs, so it is a gestational carrier because this child is a product of the Rancic’s vs. Bill’s sperm and a donor egg. Take your comments elsewhere, this is a wonderful time for this family!

LaLa you are a hateful person… they DID do it, they dreamed of having a child, tried to have one on their own and despite all the obstacles they faced they continued to pursue the dream and explored all options to have one…and WITH the surrogate THEY did do it….What ever happened to don’t say anything at all if you dont have anything nice to say…

happy they have the baby. I still dont buy the problems as all real. She is super skinny which yes helps the problem more. BUT E! network is nothing but super skinny girls competing with short dresses. my gut is saying she did not have the baby so she can keep that job of hers.

I too have never commented on a story here but I literally cried when I read that baby Ransic had finally arrived. I’ve recently begun the journey with an amazing couple to become a gestational carrier for their little angel. To say the biological parents have done nothing is absurd. There are countless tests, procedures and grueling months of appointments for the parents to endure as well as the surrogate. God bless this beautiful family as well as the surrogate and her family. What an amazing gift to give and to receive! I can’t wait to be able to deliver the same gift to another family. <3

Surrogates don’t get paid “good money.” They get compensated for their pain and hardship but the agency rate for a surrogate equates out to about 3.00/hr, less if the surrogacy process takes longer than the average 9 months. Gestational carriers don’t do it for the money normally. They do it because they themselves have been effected by infertility or they know someone else who has struggled.

Besides, I don’t think Lala’s comment was spiteful. People just wanted to look at it as a reason to be argumentative.

I’m not an overly mushy person but this story brought tears to my eyes. I love G&B, they have remained “real” even with the hoopla they get from being famous. I’m so happy they’ve become a family, they deserve every happiness in the world!

Maybe their “we did it” comment included the surrogate. Just because someone says we doesn’t mean it’s just two people.

Why do you FEEL as though you MUST be NASTY? What harm comes from THEM stating “THEY did it”? If ANYONE is AWARE that a surrogate BLESSED THEM by carrying their child to term, in HER belly, IT IS THEM. I doubt they need YOUR {so rudely stated} reminder. Please go find some happiness in YOUR life, & stop blocking the SUNSHINE on THIS PARADE, with your SMOG. I’m going to pray you CAN do this. Blessings to the new Mommy & Daddy!; L’il Edward; AND, their Surrogate- for her selflessness & generosity!

Congrats to the entire family! I like the name as well, however, when most people my age (and older) hear/read Duke, they think of John Wayne (The Duke), or Duke the hound dog in Beverly Hills, or even The Duke of Earl, LOL. Edward, definitely traditional and common, Duke not so much, but I am happy the baby is here and hope for smooth sailing and lots of precious, loving moments ahead for the family.

To everyone commenting negatively on Baby Edward Duke’s name.. PARENTS choose their children’s names, last I knew.. {Obviously} THEY- must LOVE the name; THEY- have THEIR reasons for choosing his name; THEY- get to do that!.. I don’t recall ANY OF US being asked to let them know if we take issue with THEIR Sons name. Every Baby is an absolute MIRACLE, A beautiful GIFT from God.. WHY, AGAIN, do people FEEL they MUST be SO negative! I would wager that not everyone cares for the names you chose for YOUR children.. Do you even care? I hope not. It was YOUR choice! So it goes.. “If you can’t say something nice…”

People post negetive comments for multiple reasons, mostly because they are bored and stupid. I’m just glad that they were still allowed to have a child, even though politics is trying to ban in vitro so that people who are unable to have children cannot. Middle Class infertile couples don’t have the luxury of buying a surrogate, and I’m sure this couple is very grateful that they have the money and support from everyone in their family to make sure they have whats important to them…a biological family. Although I don’t agree with Romney on this issue, I do think that he would be ok with this couple using invitro since they are responsible enough and Rich so they can afford a kid and not have to drain our society. But Romeny is right that we should not be creating these babies because then they are later thrown in the garbage or used for stem cells and cloning. So he is right in some ways, but in this case, he isn’t because this family deserves to have a biological kid so I’m glad it’s legal now. GO ROMNEY!

“We”? That’s like a grocery store saying, “We did it” when someone makes a cake. They may have supplied the ingredients, but the surrogate baked the cake!

Colorado has no existing case law on surrogacy, so I assume this is treated like an open adoption. In Massachusetts, the mother has four days to revoke her decision to give up the child.

I could not agree with you more! I guess they can afford the “luxury” of paying someone to have their baby. I don’t care what anyone says – her egg or not – that baby is hers too. He lived through her for 9 months. Not to be judgmental or anything but as s Catholic I must ask – Do they intend to have little baby Edward baptized in the Catholic Church? As far as I know it’s against our religion to conceive through surrogacy. Bet they didn’t check with their priest – too busy keeping up with Jessica Parker and so on. Maybe if God didn’t send a kid their way was because it was his intend to have them adopt kids? Kudos to Tom Cruise for adopting two kids and think he’s supposed to be the crazy one when Nicole also went through surrogacy! Plenty of kids without parents – plenty of parents wanting kids and they can’t have them = God’s plan. Hello!

Jill

Okay, to answer part of my own question: “Edward” is Bill’s middle name AND the name of his father, who passed away with cancer. Love that the name is in their honor and a family name with history! Still don’t know if “Duke” has a story behind it, but would be interested to know.

This child is in no way related to the surrogate, she has no legal rights to this child. He is 100% G&B’s child, their DNA, blood type and genetics. The surrogate, who by the way is incredibly selfless, does not have 4 days to revoke the agreement. It is not an adoption. He is 100% G&B biological son, therefore the surrogate has ZERO rights to the child, and would be criminally charged if she tried anything. Get your facts straight!

You would be one of the I’m sure FEW nasty, judgemental and heartless people to make a nasty comment. It’s called KARMA and by that one comment I’m sure you having nothing nice to ever say and it’s going to bite you in the A$$ someday.

Al u haters, u looking for a happy ending where G is pregnant and names it some name that u like. She has been given the gift of a lifetime and she wil cherish it just as she wud hav if she had gotten pregnant wit edward herself. Just take a moment 2 realise that, if one of ur friends cudnt get pregnant and used a surrogate,u wudnt hav anything nasty 2 say 2 them, so don’t say something nasty 2 G and B, just because they celebrities, they normal ppl just like us. I wish G and B all the happiness in the world and I’m sure little man will grow up 2 be a very handsome fellow. P.S: the nanny wudnt be the one 2 raise edward, not all couples are able 2 not work and just stay at home, so yes edward may get looked after during the day by someone else or he may go 2 creche, but so what, no every 1 can stay at home and not work. They work so they can provide for their family and little edward.
